Am not familiar with your DAC/amp. You'll have to check with them or other owners with regard to what it can drive and drive well.
Speaking strictly to headphones, your two choices are very good ones. The Senn will be the easier of the two to drive. However, the DT 880 is available in (almost as good) 250 Ohm flavors, if the 600 Ohm is too much for your equipment.
Hi, I'm looking for suggestions on which full size open circumaural headphones to buy. I mainly listen to classical music, and the headphones should sound good with acoustic instruments like the harpsichord, violin etc. My budget is around £300 - £350, so I'm currently looking at the Sennheiser HD-600s and the Beyerdynamics DT-880 600ohm. I'll be using the headphones with an Epiphany EHP-02D DAC/Amp http://epiphany-acoustics.co.uk/products-page/dacs/ehp-o2d-miniature-desktop-headphone-amplifier-with-usb-dac/
Recommendations would be appreciated.
